1z0-084 Exam Dumps : Oracle Database 19c: Performance Management and Tuning

When sessions concurrently insert data into a table with an LOB column and one session needs to allocate a new extent because it cannot find available space, the wait event associated with this contention is "enq: HW - contention". The HW stands for High Water Mark which is related to space allocation in the database segment. When asession needs to allocate a new extent, it may raise this wait event in other sessions that are also attempting to allocate space in the same LOB segment.

When both a SQL Profile and a SQL Plan Baseline are in place, the SQL Profile has a stronger preference and the optimizer is more likely to choose the execution plan from the SQL Profile.

C. A SQL Profile is generally more influential than a SQL Plan Baseline because it contains additional statistics and directives that help the optimizer to generate a more efficient execution plan. If both exist, the optimizer will use the profile's plan unless the baseline's plan is proven to be better through the SQL performance monitoring process.

E. SQL Plan Baselines must be accepted before they can be used by the optimizer. If a SQL Plan Baseline is not accepted, it will not be considered for generating the execution plan. Therefore, the presence of an unaccepted SQL Plan Baseline will not automatically force the optimizer to use its plan.

Regarding space usage in temporary tablespaces, the following statements are true:

• A (Correct):When a global temporary table or a sort operation exceeds the available memory, Oracle Database allocates space in a temporary tablespace to store the temporary data or intermediate results.
• E (Correct):Using temporary tablespace groups can prevent insufficient temporary tablespace for sort operations by providing a collective pool of space from multiple temporary tablespaces, which can be used for user sorting operations.

The other options provided have inaccuracies:

• B (Incorrect):Oracle does not provide a mechanism for setting quotas on temporary tablespaces. Quotas can be set for permanent tablespaces but not for temporary ones.
• C (Incorrect):A sort operation may fail due to insufficient space, but Oracle will attempt to allocate space in the temporary tablespace dynamically. If no space can be allocated, an error is returned rather than a sort failure.
• D (Incorrect):If a session consumes all available temporary tablespace storage, Oracle will not hang the session; it will return an error to the session indicating that it has run out of temporary space.
